I don’t think this is far off from happening once he has a healthy stretch and keeps the high level of play up. Seems this front office is resetting and is going to do the OKC playbook and is eyeing 2027-2028 to start making a run. 

Except history says we can't draft for poo or win a trade while okc consistently smashes draft picks and always robs people blind on trades

The Hornets front office perpetually has no idea what they are doing.

And just like that the new owners and front office can fug right off. Can’t wait to draft some more incredibly raw French guys who look live they’ve never dribbled a basketball before.

Wtf is this team doing?

So after Richards and Williams we are back to having no center? 

Yea, I thought we were hurting for a C. We finally draft one to develop and trade him away. 

I'll never understand this franchise.

The Hornets are stockpiling picks and young talent. Only idiots on this page think we lost this trade. At worse, it was an even trade. 

Much like the Panthers during the Tepper era, the Charlotte NBA organization, since its rebirth (Bobcats/Hornets), has done absolutely nothing to instill fan confidence in the moves they make.

After rethinking the deal I agree the Hornets got a great return.  Loved Knecht in the draft and unprotected firsts work.  
 

If the Hornets find a good big they have a really nice mix of talent

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
